FAULT CODE 121 - Engine Speed/Position Sensor Circuit - Lost One of Two
Signals from the Magnetic Pickup Sensor
TROUBLESHOOTING SUMMARY

CAUTION
To reduce the possibility of damaging a new engine control module, all other active fault codes must be
investigated prior to replacing the engine control module. To reduce the possibility of pin and harness
damage, use the following test leads when taking a measurement: Part Number 3822758 - male Deutsch/
AMP/Metri-Pack test lead Part Number 3822917 - female Deutsch/AMP/Metri-Pack test lead.
